Maybe I am going about this the wrong way, but I am trying to merge the outer most arrays indexed [0] and [1]. The arrays are produced from an API query. The outer most arrays indexes could continue indefinitely. I am trying to combine them so I can loop through them using a for loop to produce a new element in the inner most product arrays based on the price and sales rank in each array.
I do not even know if this is possible but any help or even a push in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Eric

$result = $array[0];
for ($i = 1; $i < count($array); $i++) {
foreach ($result as $key => &$value) {
$value = array_merge($value, $array[$i][$key]);
}
}
Now $result should be an associative array that contains the merged contents of all the original sub-arrays.

You can cycle using an index and add the attribute of the second array to the first:
for ($index = 0; $index < count($array1); $index++) {
$array1[$index]->mysummary = $array2[$index]->mysummary;
}
foreach ($array1 as $key => $value) {
$array1[$key]->mysummary = $array2[$key]->mysummary;
}
echo '<pre>';print_r($array1);
You can use a combination of array_map and array_merge to achieve the same without any dependency of a static key of arrays.
$result = array_map(function($a,$b){
return array_merge(isset($a) ? $a : array(), isset($b) ? $b : array());
},$a1,$a2);

PHP - Looping through indexed JSON array

I have parsed and looped through JSON plenty of times. I have seemed to hit a wall with something I have not done before and I have been unable to find an answer and hopefully I am referencing this correctly. I have been really struggling with this.
With the code example below I can parse it and assign a varible to an object and get its value like so.
$result = json_decode($json, true);
print_r($result);
echo $result['response'][0]['report']['type'];
This is where the problem comes in and it starts with the array index and I am hoping I am referring to this correctly. Basically it is the [0] from above. I have never looped through something like that before and my research has come up empty. Normally I would do it like this.
$json = '{"success":true,"error":null,"response":[{"id":"59c30487db6be86b7f8b465a","loc":{"long":-90.45,"lat":43.43},"report":{"code":"R","type":"heavy rain","name":"Gillingham","detail":{"text":1,"rainIN":1,"rainMM":25.4},"reporter":"co-op observer","comments":"","timestamp":1505952240,"cat":"rain","dateTimeISO":"2017-09-20T19:04:00-05:00","datetime":"2017-09-20T19:04:00-05:00","wfo":"arx"},"place":{"name":"gillingham","state":"wi","county":"richland","country":"us"},"profile":{"tz":"America\/Chicago"}},{"id":"59c302a9db6be82a758b46e8","loc":{"long":-90.93,"lat":43.32},"report":{"code":"R","type":"heavy rain","name":"Mount Sterling","detail":{"text":2.25,"rainIN":2.25,"rainMM":57.15},"reporter":"trained spotter","comments":"","timestamp":1505951760,"cat":"rain","dateTimeISO":"2017-09-20T18:56:00-05:00","datetime":"2017-09-20T18:56:00-05:00","wfo":"arx"},"place":{"name":"mount sterling","state":"wi","county":"crawford","country":"us"},"profile":{"tz":"America\/Chicago"}},{"id":"59c30106db6be8146c8b4661","loc":{"long":-89.53,"lat":44.45},"report":{"code":"R","type":"heavy rain","name":"Plover","detail":{"text":1.05,"rainIN":1.05,"rainMM":26.67},"reporter":"co-op observer","comments":"One hour total rainfall. also measured a 49 mph wind gust at 511 pm. no hail.","timestamp":1505950800,"cat":"rain","dateTimeISO":"2017-09-20T18:40:00-05:00","datetime":"2017-09-20T18:40:00-05:00","wfo":"grb"},"place":{"name":"plover","state":"wi","county":"portage","country":"us"},"profile":{"tz":"America\/Chicago"}},{"id":"59c3080adb6be8d5138b4654","loc":{"long":-89.33,"lat":44.37},"report":{"code":"H","type":"hail","name":"4 mi NNW Blaine","detail":{"text":0.88,"hailIN":0.88,"hailMM":22.35},"reporter":"trained spotter","comments":"Nickel size hail and heavy rain. 3.25 to 3.49 inches in the past 2 hours.","timestamp":1505950680,"cat":"hail","dateTimeISO":"2017-09-20T18:38:00-05:00","datetime":"2017-09-20T18:38:00-05:00","wfo":"grb"},"place":{"name":"blaine","state":"wi","county":"portage","country":"us"},"profile":{"tz":"America\/Chicago"}},{"id":"59c30106db6be8146c8b4660","loc":{"long":-90.93,"lat":43.32},"report":{"code":"H","type":"hail","name":"Mount Sterling","detail":{"text":0.75,"hailIN":0.75,"hailMM":19.05},"reporter":"trained spotter","comments":"Hail ranged from 1\/2 to 3\/4 inch.","timestamp":1505950200,"cat":"hail","dateTimeISO":"2017-09-20T18:30:00-05:00","datetime":"2017-09-20T18:30:00-05:00","wfo":"arx"},"place":{"name":"mount sterling","state":"wi","county":"crawford","country":"us"},"profile":{"tz":"America\/Chicago"}},{"id":"59c2fd80db6be844598b466d","loc":{"long":-89.77,"lat":44.21},"report":{"code":"R","type":"heavy rain","name":"6 mi ESE New Rome","detail":{"text":4,"rainIN":4,"rainMM":101.6},"reporter":"trained spotter","comments":"","timestamp":1505949840,"cat":"rain","dateTimeISO":"2017-09-20T18:24:00-05:00","datetime":"2017-09-20T18:24:00-05:00","wfo":"arx"},"place":{"name":"rome","state":"wi","county":"adams","country":"us"},"profile":{"tz":"America\/Chicago"}},{"id":"59c2f678db6be898338b4673","loc":{"long":-89.3,"lat":44.46},"report":{"code":"H","type":"hail","name":"Amherst Junction","detail":{"text":1,"hailIN":1,"hailMM":25.4},"reporter":"trained spotter","comments":"","timestamp":1505948340,"cat":"hail","dateTimeISO":"2017-09-20T17:59:00-05:00","datetime":"2017-09-20T17:59:00-05:00","wfo":"grb"},"place":{"name":"amherst junction","state":"wi","county":"portage","country":"us"},"profile":{"tz":"America\/Chicago"}},{"id":"59c2f2f6db6be8a2208b4672","loc":{"long":-89.4,"lat":44.26},"report":{"code":"H","type":"hail","name":"Almond","detail":{"text":2,"hailIN":2,"hailMM":50.8},"reporter":"trained spotter","comments":"Report via social media","timestamp":1505948160,"cat":"hail","dateTimeISO":"2017-09-20T17:56:00-05:00","datetime":"2017-09-20T17:56:00-05:00","wfo":"grb"},"place":{"name":"almond","state":"wi","county":"portage","country":"us"},"profile":{"tz":"America\/Chicago"}}]}';

That would usually work in most cases but since this has the [0] and increases with each new entry I am not sure how to loop through that as my entry point is different that what I have dealt with before and have been unable to find any working examples for something like this. Not to mention I am not sure how to working ['response'] into the loop ether with those index keys.
Here is a decode example of the array and what I am working with.
Array ( [success] => 1 [error] => [response] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [id] => 59c30487db6be86b7f8b465a [loc] => Array ( [long] => -90.45 [lat] => 43.43 ) [report] => Array ( [code] => R [type] => heavy rain [name] => Gillingham [detail] => Array ( [text] => 1 [rainIN] => 1 [rainMM] => 25.4 ) [reporter] => co-op observer [comments] => [timestamp] => 1505952240 [cat] => rain [dateTimeISO] => 2017-09-20T19:04:00-05:00 [datetime] => 2017-09-20T19:04:00-05:00 [wfo] => arx ) [place] => Array ( [name] => gillingham [state] => wi [county] => richland [country] => us ) [profile] => Array ( [tz] => America/Chicago ) ) [1] => Array ( [id] => 59c302a9db6be82a758b46e8 [loc] => Array ( [long] => -90.93 [lat] => 43.32 ) [report] => Array ( [code] => R [type] => heavy rain [name] => Mount Sterling [detail] => Array ( [text] => 2.25 [rainIN] => 2.25 [rainMM] => 57.15 ) [reporter] => trained spotter [comments] => [timestamp] => 1505951760 [cat] => rain [dateTimeISO] => 2017-09-20T18:56:00-05:00 [datetime] => 2017-09-20T18:56:00-05:00 [wfo] => arx ) [place] => Array ( [name] => mount sterling [state] => wi [county] => crawford [country] => us ) [profile] => Array ( [tz] => America/Chicago ) ) [2] => Array ( [id] => 59c30106db6be8146c8b4661 [loc] => Array ( [long] => -89.53 [lat] => 44.45 ) [report] => Array ( [code] => R [type] => heavy rain [name] => Plover [detail] => Array ( [text] => 1.05 [rainIN] => 1.05 [rainMM] => 26.67 ) [reporter] => co-op observer [comments] => One hour total rainfall. also measured a 49 mph wind gust at 511 pm. no hail.

Now I want to loop through that array, as I want to re-convert it into my XML format, I am able to access the first level of the array and the orderitems -> item -> code where the client purchased one single item, but I am not able to loop inside deeper level where the client purchased more than one item (second array)
here is my code
foreach($array['data']['transaction'] as $transaction){
//echo $transaction['fields']['transactionid']."<br>";
//echo $transaction['orderitems']['item']['code']."<br>";
if(isset($transaction['orderitems']['item']['code'])){
echo $transaction['orderitems']['item']['code']."<br>";
} else {
foreach($transaction['orderitems']['item'] as $multi_item){
echo "<--- MULTI ---><br>";
//tried so many things and none has worked;
//like $multi_item['code'];
}
}
}
how to access the code of each item purchased by john doe?
You can access this data by filtering the array.
In PHP >= 5.5.0 you can make a search like this;
$key = array_search('John Doe', array_column($yourArray, 'cardholdersname'));
This method will return the array that matched given criteria.

for($index=0; $index<=4; $index++){
$final_array[$index] = array_merge($product[$index],$pricing[$index]);
}
This would give you the desired array.
Try
foreach ($products as $key => $product){
$products[$key] = array_merge($product, $prices[$key])
}

I'm trying to use array_unique to discard of repeated values.
